The Control-Concern-Focus Principle

Life is filled with things we care about. But rarely can we fully control them.

Similarly, there are many things we can influence. But only a few of them matter.

Pouring energy into the uncontrollable and focusing on the irrelevant is equally wasted effort.

Effective living demands we focus where our concern and control intersect.

It’s not just about one or the other. It’s about both.

Engage with what you care about AND where you can make a difference.

The rest is just noise.

Use this guide:

• What you can’t control but care about: practice acceptance.

• What you can control but don’t care about: de-prioritize.

• What you can’t control and don’t care about: ignore.

• What you can control and care about: focus your energy.
